One last look at Kingdoms of Amalur: Reckoning prior to release

Kingdoms of Amalur: Reckoning is a single player Action RPG that blends a new approach to character development with intuitive, yet challenging real-time combat. Characters enter the game as something of a blank slate after they are resurrected from death by the mysterious “Well of Souls” following a grand in-game conflict.

Active combat plays a major role in the game as players explore the Open World environment of the game on quests that bring them into contact with all manner of creatures. Regardless of character paths, all characters have access to primary and secondary weapons as well as magic. Unique attacks are tied to your choice of weapons, armor and strategies.

The Kingdoms of Amalur: Reckoning Demo is available on Xbox 360, PS3, and Steam. Give it a try before the game’s release, due on February 7th.
